As Genshin Impact enthusiasts eagerly await the arrival of the 5.4 update in just a week, the current version presents a surprising opportunity to conquer even the toughest bosses with ease. Ironically, this exploit leverages the Hydro Traveler, a character often underestimated for their DPS capabilities.
The trick behind this exploit is refreshingly straightforward, even if you're not a programmer diving into the game's code. It involves the Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst and the Xiao Lanterns, which you can gather during the Lantern Rite Festival. The magic unfolds when you strategically position a number of Xiao Lanterns near a boss and then unleash the Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst. The result? The boss's health bar diminishes dramatically.
This phenomenon occurs because the Elemental Burst triggers additional AoE damage when it interacts with an object. With a hundred lanterns in place, the damage can soar into the millions, turning formidable foes into mere speed bumps.
While it's almost certain that this exploit will be patched in an upcoming update, for the time being, it provides a golden window for players to effortlessly navigate through boss battles. So, take advantage while you can, and enjoy the thrill of easy victories in Genshin Impact.
